I really enjoyed watching this Show, Katie, well done! In fact, as a white woman boomer, i have enjoyed all these Series that MSNBC has been putting on with various Groups of Women of Color & i so hope 2C more moving forward!!
As far as falling in love and marrying a white person or Asian; first of all live have no boundaries! However, these kind of events are all personal experiences and performances too! Some of old Asian generation reactions to interracial marriage is negative is just a generational! Also racism in west is not as severe as in the east or around globe! We are so lucky to be in the west to have a voice and thrive our future and enjoying success!!! We are all one big family 💕🇺🇸💕🌈💕🇺🇸🙏💕
During your special on Sunday night, I had hoped you would ask your guests if any had married or dated a black man and what was their family's reaction
Margaret Cho was interviewed by Katie Phang on "The Culture Is: AAPI Women". The San Francisco-born actor and comedian reflects on her unconventional path to fame, and addresses the self-doubt she experienced while filming her short-lived sitcom _All-American Girl_ .
THE MOST racist word I know is ASSIMILATION . full stop . WHY is anyone "expected" to become something that they are not? WHY should anyone give up their culture, language, ideals, faith and so much more, ONLY to STILL NEVER measure up to an invisible criteria? What right does any person have to EXPECT anyone to ASSIMILATE? I was raised white. My skin is "white". And yet, I NEVER fit in, no matter how much I wanted to. As it turns out, my maternal grandmother kept a secret. She was Native American. She was ashamed of this. She had 3 sisters that I never knew because SHE didn't want us to know her secret. HER SHAME denied me my heritage. I cannot forget that … I have family out there that I'll never know.
To me, foriegn is full stop. If born here you are an American, but as it is it's CLASS or the packing order or the drum one dance to. Not fitting in is spiritual, inherent or DNA, call it what one deems it. I'm the odd ball of 13 in the family. But I was told at 8 years of age by my grandfather who married my half Indian/black grandmother that I have ways of your Indian side. And so I float on a separate cloud.
@@willielee5253 After I found out about my grandmother, I asked my mother about Dad's family heritage. When I told her what I suspected, she told me to mind my own business and hung up the phone! For her, she would have to admit that she was in a biracial marriage. I guess that was too much for her. I was thrilled to be "less white!" I finally felt like I belonged to a people that I could be proud of. (I know that sounds odd, but you didn't grow up in my cold uncaring household.)
@@SpecialSP at 5 years old we got a TV and the Indians were my favorite against the cowboys. But they always seem to lose, I didn't know why but they did. That was 70 years ago and I'm at peace with it now. I have a drop of Irish, a pound of Native blood and a boat loud of Africa to claim my own and relate comfortably it all nowadays. My grandfather died when I was ten of age and my mother's mother died when she was 5. And my mother never spoke about her pass or family historically, so yes, I floated for a long time. When I mentioned my great grand full bloodied Uncle, my mother was surprised of me knowing of him, by way of my aunt. I don't pire, I just observe and reflect. I only post because of our small similarity.
@@SpecialSP Mind your own business? Your heritage is, in fact, your business. Hopefully, your mother will come around to talk to you about it. It will take time though.
A lot of folks don't speak to Asian Women because they don't know what to say, while some feel entitled to speak to all kinds of women. Call it what you want.
Great interview, one we need to continue. We celebrate ALL in America!
Powerful topic
❤ I'm glad that these Asian women have had a round table.
Such an important segment.
4000 years of culture down the drain .. no lady that happened when the CCP took over China.
❤❤❤❤❤
An overdue conversation @!!!

How about 50 years overdue. This nations progress has not caught up with its moral responsibility

😂😂😂😂 what?
Was Margaret Cho consulted?
Margaret Cho was interviewed by Katie Phang on "The Culture Is: AAPI Women". The San Francisco-born actor and comedian reflects on her unconventional path to fame, and addresses the self-doubt she experienced while filming her short-lived sitcom _All-American Girl_ .
A clip with Cho was just posted 15 minutes ago.
